(After Figuier.) woody column of the stock provides the transpiration stream to the alien bud. Grafting is essentially the same process ; but a woody shoot with a number of buds is removed, and inserted upon a corre- spondingly cut surface of the stock, so that the active cambial tissues of both shall be in contact (Fig. 174). Inarching or approach-grafting is similar, but has the advantage of both plants remaining rooted till the union is complete (Fig. 175). After the bud or graft has fully united with the stock its own root is cut away. Meanwhile the head of the stock having been removed, the graft or bud takes its Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Bower, F.
